FINE ANTIQUE PALAIS ROYAL HORSE & CARRIAGE PERFUME SCENT BOTTLE DUO CIRCA 1860

OFFERED FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION IS THIS VERY ATTRACTIVE ANTIQUE FRENCH PALAIS ROYAL PERFUME BOTTLE PRESENTATION DATING CIRCA 1860.

THIS ANTIQUE PERFUME SET CONSISTS OF TWO HORSES PULLING A CARRIAGE IN WHICH THE TWO CLEAR GLASS SCENT BOTTLES ARE FITTED AND ALL STANDING ON AN ALABASTER BASE. THE BASE MEASURES 10 CMS BY 6.5 CMS AND THE ITEM STANDS A MAXIMUM OF 7 CMS IN HEIGHT.  THE HORSES ARE MADE OF METAL AND WEAR GILT METAL SADDLES AND EVEN THE REINS ARE STILL COMPLETE. THE PIERCED GILT METAL CARRIAGE HAS SPOKED WHEELS AND THE CLEAR GLASS SCENT BOTTLES HAVE SLOPING PANEL CUT SHOULDERS WITH MULTI FACETED BODIES. THEY HAVE GILT METAL HINGED LIDS.

THIS FINE ANTIQUE FRENCH GRAND TOUR SOUVENIR PIECE IS OFFERED IN OVERALL GOOD CONDITION. ONE OF THE BOTTLES TENDS TO LEAN A LITTLE SO HAS TO BE FITTED CAREFULLY TO ENSURE IT STAYS UPRIGHT. BOTH BOTTLES HAE NO CHIPS OR CRACKS TO THE GLASS AND THE LIDS FIT FIRMLY AND SECURELY AND HAVE NO DENTS OR DINGS ALTHOUGH THERE IS SOME DISCOLOURATION TO THE GILT FINISH. THE BOTTLES ARE LACKING THEIR INTERNAL STOPPERS. THE ALBASTER BASE HAS NO DAMAGE AND HAS BLUE FELT BOTTOM WHICH IS COMPLETE. THERE IS SOME SLIGHT SEPARATION TO THE METAL JOINTS OF THE HORSES ALTHOUGH IN MY OPINION THIS IS NOT DETRIMENTAL. THANK YOU FOR LOOKING.
